Completely dry metal albums

[Devon8822]

Metal albums that sound really dry or you know for a fact are completely lacking any reverb (in before you say "there will always be at least a minimal amount of room sound from drum mics, etc...).

I don't have anything to start this thread with. Take her away!

I always thought the first Danzig album sounded dry, but there's obviously some verb/delay etc.

I'm revisiting SoaD this week and Toxicity seemed noticeably dry.

Thanks for the post Sloan, but idk about that Danzig song being dry, listen to the snare, sounds like tons of reverb to me!

Toxicity, sounds really dry to me though.

I found one also now! Sounds really dry
Queens of The Stone Age - No One Knows

But the QOTSA drum sound is very much about a short room signature sound - I've tried to copy it before.
Also on the chorus/heavier parts the very mid-rangey guitar parts that come in have a room sound on them - they are coming from behind the drum kit.

Toxicity - need a glass of water with that sumbitch

Metallica - Death Magnetic & Justice

I don't think anything can top ...and justice for all.

I think it's much less obvious in fast metal because there is so much less space for the (lack of) decay to become noticeable.

Maybe not something you would call metal, but AC/DC is super dry.
